Sept 14 2014 Sun  We rode back to Volkach and looked for the fest there but it was a one day thing.   That didn't stop us from having 3 glasses of federweissen between us.   So we rode on to Nordheim to check on the fest there.  It was busier today then yesterday but still not like a true fest.  We tasted a couple of different reds and bought a bottle  from Ramon Sauer winery.  Then J wanted to take the ferry across the Main to Escherndorf.  Not much happening there so we rode to Astheim.  There we saw a sign for the quince trail, something J had been looking for.  Evidently In Germany people use quince in various things.  She took the trail, about 2 k and took lots of pics for her sister.   After that we rode to Volkach again and had some federweissen oddly enough.  Then we rode back to
Wipfeld.   At dinner we met a couple that were motor sailing from Basel Switzerland to Bamberg.  They said there are not a lot of places to park for the night and it's hard to get Diesel, a couple of thing I didn't think would be a problem.
